Give me thoughts and advice please! I'm pretty proud how they're coming out!

I really like the shape and design of these models, so right now they are table ready.

I kinda want some cool poses for my assault intercessors, and the blood claws really do it for me. Let me know if anyone has converted them and how hard/easy was it, thanks

Painted up a bladeguard squad. Tried a few new techniques for swords and shields. What do yall think?

Sup Ravens

After over a month of not painting anything I finally managed to get some time in with my brushes, and of course some new kits. Gotta say, having a break this long after only getting into this hobby in May/June this year left me kind of rusty.

This here poor Inceptor was my testing dummy, as an unfortunate Superglue drop melted a part of his chest (hence the attempt at 'battle damage'). Tried a bit of OSL if that even counts as OSL as well as painting with a blending sponge (very recommended technique)

And of course what better background than a Repulsor Executioner, with paint still wet in some spots.

Paint your models guys!

Are intercessors any good on shadowmark? Im slowly getting enough for an army but ive been real busy with work, i havent even learned the game yet. I have plenty of phobos and jumpack troops, but was wondering if normal intercessors were any decent, is there any good lists out there?

I started this hobby one year ago at the local hobby shop and I'm thankful for this subreddit and its community for sometimes guiding me and inspiring me, here is all the miniature I painted this year.

This one is a more would you rather question. If you had the choice to change Shaan's datasheet to be more like Calgar's datasheet would you? What I mean is currently Shaan only has 2 unique abilities (charge reroll and free heroic) vs Calgar's 3 abilities. So, if you had the option to pay 180 pts for Shaan, but in return he got to use the uppy downy effect from Shadowmark in any detachment, or keep him the way he is now at 105, which one would you choose? I think it would be cool for Chapter Masters across space marines to be expensive but be stacked when it comes to rules, just wondering if I'm the only one.

10 looks like a big number, but 5 seems not enough to keep him around, and you bring guns or shields?

I know I have to use ardcoat to put a transfer on but if I go back over when I’m done with stormsheild will it look normal again?

New to 40k and the rule of cool has officially put me in a pickle. I was originally drawn to the deathwatch and the minis and built them without knowing how awful and expensive killteams are to make (there still cool). So i was thinking of pivoting to Deathwatch with the raven guard cause you can do that with deathwatch support(and so i only need to buy 500pts of deathwatch). The only problem is that then im kinda forced into running disruption which ive only heard bad things about so far so I dont wanna end up with an army thats miserable to play.

So the question im asking is there a way to make it work any specific things I need to keep in mind for a list to make it work? Is it even possible because I see people take Shadow mark and another detachment with the sole purpose of getting a better disposition.

I’ve found that I don’t really like the edge highlighted look on space marines especially raven guard because to me it feels a bit too organic but I’ve seen black templars and other chapters with a dry brush instead of edge highlights and wanted to know if anyone had any examples of their raven guards with the same treatment just so I can get a feel for the look it would achieve with raven guard

Hello fellow Shadow Captains.

Can't see any other posts on this anywhere so I thought it best to ask. Does Shaan need to be on the battlefield to be able to use Unparalleled Tactician in Shadowmark Talon or can he be in reserves? I would have thought the best use for him is to leave in reserves until round 3 and then free rapid ingress. Appreciate any thoughts.
